Green Screen
Green Screen is a new app that I have not used in a lesson yet, but I am ready to try! Simply record a video using a green background and then choose a still picture or video to place behind it. We can make news reports from Ancient Greece. Weather forecasts can be made with a weather map in the background. Maybe we can hear from famous Americans about why they are famous. We can use this for puppet shows or claymation, too!
FotoFarm
If you have not used FotoFarm yet, you are missing out. This app is usually the first step in making projects that use images. It is a Google image search in a kid friendly app. If you are using iMovie, 30 Hands, PicCollage, Puppet Pals, Chatterpix Kids, or any of the other apps that use images, this is the best way to find them.
